Splinter - Solar Storms: Solar Energetic Particle (SEP) events O. Malandraki (NOA) Thursday, Nov 8, 14:00-16:00 This splinter meeting will cover topics that fit in the SWWT Topical Working Group Drivers of Space Weather, Subgroup 2 Solar Storms. The emphasis of this Splinter will be on Solar Energetic Particle ( SEP) events which are the key element of Space Weather. During the splinter, recent advancesin the understanding of the particle acceleration and transport processes at the Sun and in the inner heliosphere that lead to SEP events will be presented and discussed, also in terms of the relative toles of flares and CMEs in the acceleration and release of the SEPs. Advances on the modeling and forecasting of SEP events, mitigation strategies as well as results on these issues of current relevant FP7 projects will be highlighted during this splinter. Participants are welcome to present their data and analysis of particular aspects on SEP events that is of interest for them. Please contact Dr. Olga Malandraki, omaland at astro.noa.gr, spokesperson, subgroup 2. Back to the splinters-page. | ||
